There is a symbolic truth to the saying that ‘EVIL is LIVE spelled backwards.’ After all, the defining point of ‘evil’ concerns life itself.
But ‘evil’, like ‘good’, is an abstract concept. Being able to see and recognize evil when one encounters it often seems even more difficult than trying to define it.
The most popular form of evil is generally known by another name: socialism. That too few are able to equate socialism with evil is cause for concern, to say the least. But that so many equate socialism with the good is cause for outright alarm.
Dennis Prager of PragerU has advised that “wisdom begins with understanding that human nature is not basically good, nor evil.” In choosing socialism, most do not understand either the principles of socialism itself, nor the nature of the evil that makes socialism possible.
Thus it is essential to listen to the growing number of people who have lived and suffered under socialism now coming forward to sound the alarm. To that end we have recently featured accounts of how socialism manifested itself in countries like North Korea, Senegal, Venezuela, and Iran. As Venezuelan immigrant Daniel Di Martino describes his personal mission: “I decided to educate Americans on the horrors of socialism.”
People who have freedom tend to take it for granted. But the fragility of freedom can never be overstated. Sometimes, to see and appreciate what one has at hand, it is necessary to look beyond, to appreciate what those in other nations do not have and wish they did.
It’s called freedom and it’s found exclusively on the political polarity that’s Just Right.
